I, Kevin Rowland (the son of Irish immigrants) and the main songwriter of ‘Come On Eileen,’ am disgusted to learn that Nigel Farage has used our song to make his entrance for his party conference. Myself, and all of Dexys are passionately against Farage’s politics. @ByDonkeys .

@MentalHealthCop Completely agree. A good start would be to throw RCRP in the bin, and come up with an interface protocol which recognises that law enforcement and mental health services overlap hugely in terms of operational responsibilities and required skill sets.

@MentalHealthCop I’m convinced now that MH services need to be delivered by standalone regional mental health trusts, not by integrated trusts that have to provide everything else as well, and don’t really get mental health.

We don’t really have a mental health system - because it is not designed as and has not evolved as a system. It’s a disorganisation of disparate agencies working in discord with each other.

This is a really important point - Whatever the problems (and there are many), the police, AMHPs, psychiatrists and mental health nurses, etc. were working in a SYSTEM. Those designed, evolved and led the system(s) need to be giving evidence about the structures they created.

@autisticwitter @LizPeecock @MrsEmmaWebber @hundredfamilies The #NottinghamInquiry will hear from so many people It’s right that the focus should be on the clinical care But it’s also important to understand the systemic issues Who were the architects of the systems nationally? Why did they scrap Assertive Outreach? >

@drsanjoykumar Whilst senior people are busy telling you how awful this all is, the structural context is moving towards making these events more likely, I'm afraid. MHA reform, RCRP, deliberate decisions not to train people in legal issues and leadership failures to ensure joint-working.

@MrEddieTarazona @piersmorgan The “great” in Great Britain actually refers to the ancient distinction between the larger British landmass and “minor” Britain or what is now Brittany in France. But I agree — we shouldn’t have sent our head of state to try and appease this arrogant, ignorant president.

@evernote not letting me use the Evernote app until I’ve updated it (when I’m not able to access broadband) is NOT cool. Not user friendly. Not what I’m paying you for.
